He has been Head of West Coast Research at ABC, then moved to NBC in 2000 and became Head of Scheduling for 11 years.

You could pretty much say the same for Anderson Cooper 360. The difference, rightfully, is that he does it with an older audience while Stuck in the Middle and Bizaardvark do so with a younger one, which is one reason why I’ve noted previously you should focus on the target audience for these shows and not the overall.

The middle three columns!!! 0.65% of Stuck in the Middle’s 12-34 year-old audience are the primary demographic The 18-34 demo of 0.20 is equal to 18-49 for this day.

I believe most programming on Disney and Nick are geared to the average age of 12 – between 8 and 16, so 12 is a good number. For advertising purposes, it’s adults 18 and over with likely purchasing power, but the older you are, the less likely you are watching these networks without kids, so 18-34 is a better demo to look at. If you are looking for ratings on those under 12, what’s the point? Nick and Disney’s Junior channels are for more for those under age 8.

Total viewers do not tell networks who exactly is watching so as to target their programming and advertising for, which was basically the point I was trying to make. Disney does not advertise anyway.

Never thought to notice this before, but it’s sort of amusing to see that girls watching Loud House are nearly twice the audience of boys even though it focuses on the central character, and middle child of eleven, who is the only boy. I never really saw it as a girls show despite all the sisters.
